I banned Boo Boo for a month as he requested to be banned for a certain amount of time so I increased it as he was warned numerous time in the shoutbox by myself to calm his behaviour. Having an off day is one thing. Calling people names just because they don't like the bands CONSTANTLY despite numerous warnings gave me no option to give a longer ban. If your kid constantly swears at people and calls them names then I will not tolerate it, so when a 22 year old man does it then I'm afraid it's a ban.
The rules are generally very lenient here and I have been on a few forums where moderation is a lot tougher. PM's are sent to members who step out of line as we like to keep things out of the forum and stop them coming to a head but some people just can't chill out.
That's about the only justification I will proffer here and if anyone thinks it's unfair then quite honestly- tough. Behave and nothing will happen will it?
